TROUBLE SHOOTING GUIDE
ATTENTION: Propane Tanks, and outdoor gas appliances, come equipped with a safety device that restricts the flow of gas
should the hose be cut or severed. While the safety device protects the operator, it can sometimes impair lighting the
cooker. To reduce trouble lighting the cooker, always turn Regulator Control Knob/Valve to OFF position after every use!
SYMPTOM CAUSE POSSIBLE SOLUTION
Yellow, sooty, irregular ame
AIR SHUTTER NOT ADJUSTED CORRECTLY CAUSING
TOO MUCH GAS IN MIXTURE
ADJUST AIR SHUTTER ON THE BURNER UNTIL FLAME IS BLUE
Blockage in burner
CLEAN AND CHECK BURNER FOR SPIDERS,
INSECT NESTS AND DEBRIS
Burner lights but the ame
remains very small
Burner will not light
BLOCKAGE IN BURNER FROM SPIDER WEBS,
INSECTS, DIRT DOBBERS AND DEBRIS
DISCONNECT HOSE FROM BURNER. CLEAN AND CHECK BURNER
FOR SPIDERS, INSECT NESTS AND DEBRIS
Burner will not light
and burner tube is clean
Not enough gas flow from propane tank
OPEN PROPANE TANK VALVE ALL THE WAY
LOW GAS LEVEL IN PROPANE TANK,
OR TANK IS EMPTY
CHECK GAS LEVEL IN PROPANE TANK,
RE-FILL OR EXCHANGE TANK
Too much air and not enough gas
TURN AIR SHUTTER TO ALMOST CLOSED POSITION,
THEN RE-LIGHT THE BURNER
Hissing or gurgling sounds coming
through regulator hose assembly
from tank to burner
Water in burner
CHECK BURNER FOR MOISTURE, MAKE SURE BURNER IS DRY
Damaged hose Perform soapy water test to check for cracks in hose.
Gas leak Perform soapy water test to check all connections
Do not use the appliance if gas
leaks cannot be stopped.
Flame has gone out
LOW GAS LEVEL IN PROPANE TANK,
OR TANK IS EMPTY
Check gas level in propane tank
Too much wind
Check wind direction and set cooker away
from windy areas
Blockage in burner
Clean and check burner for spiders,
insect nests and debris
Water in burner
Check burner for moisture, make sure burner is dry
Repeat cooker lighting instructions and be certain to
S-L-O-W-L-Y open cylinder valve one full turn, then
S-L-O-W-L-Y open regulator control knob to light
burner. It may be necessary to disconnect, then
reconnect the regulator to the cylinder in order to reset
the gas flow system. After doing this, make certain
regulator control valve is turned to OFF position.
Rapid gas flow from propane tank
activates EXCESS FLOW safety device
because Regulator Control Knob is not in
OFF position
